We devoted our attention towards improved engineering techniques in the field of manufacturing and inspection of shell and tube type heat exchangers after collecting design data from B.P.C.L. (Bharat Pumps and Compressors Ltd), Naini, Allahabad (U.P.), India. In this paper remedial steps/procedures/improved techniques have been proposed for all the manufacturing/assembly/heat treatment operations. The main objective of this paper is to prepare a useful guide to the manufacturers and quality control people.
